Happy New Year, all!
The Canes will start 2022 on the road in Columbus, as they’ll meet the Blue Jackets for the second time this season. The Hurricanes won the first meeting between the two teams.
We’ll keep the preview here short and simple. The Canes are coming off an impressive win over the Canadiens, while Columbus most recently won in a shootout over the Nashville Predators.
